Ōtagawa River Shijimi Clams

Product description

Rare Deluxe Shijimi Clams

These rare shijimi clams are raised only in the pure sands of the Ōtagawa River, where nutrient-rich water from the Chugoku mountains flows into the plankton-rich waters of the Seto Inland Sea. Their uniquely yellow shells attest to the freshness of the riverbed and their large meat make them hearty and filling, which is hard to say for other shijimi clams in Japan. Nutritious and beautiful, they make a great addition to all kinds of cuisine.
